City, state, and federal officials are urging New Yorkers to remain calm after a Manhattan doctor was diagnosed this week with the city's first confirmed case of Ebola.

Speaking to reporters Friday at the Office of Emergency Management's headquarters in Brooklyn, Mayor Bill de Blasio reiterated the disease can not be contracted casually and that city residents should go about their business as usual.
